Padi Ecolodge

Positive points: The resort has fairytale location, landscaping, and design of the traditional, wooden cottages. The staff people were professional, very helpful, and pleasant. The two drivers provided us with great service and information about the region’s culture and traditions.

Positive points: We were blown away by the beautiful grounds of the property. Surrounded by cliffs and rice fields, Padi Ecolodge is absolutely stunning. The buildings are so beautifully designed and the landscaping is gorgeous. The owner was super lovely and helpful too!

Review: The kind of place you think everyone should know about but sectetly you dont so that it still is available! Just the most beautiful looking traditional accommodation in a magical rice paddy setting (even more so with the morning mist). The walk across the stone path from the main road is so cool too. So quiet for sleeping and really delicious food at the restaurant. I went for a morning run along the Great Wall too. I ve travelled all over and Totally recommend this place.

Positive points: Stunning rooms in beautiful buildings in the middle of rice paddies in a gorge. Monkeys in the morning. Lovely!

Review: Great view of rice fields walking in to the place. Attractive traditional architecture but we could hear people talking and walking around from the room even with all the windows shut. Cleanliness can be improved especially in the washroom. Staff were feeding the macaques from the kitchen. The air is cool enough that a small fan is sufficient to ventilate the room at night. Have to wait awhile for hot shower before the next person showers but there is no info about this in the room. Staff were friendly, helpful and responsive. Need to walk in quite a bit from the main road so it's inconvenient when it rained but beautiful when the weather is clear. Was easy to get e-hailing services and close enough to the town. Nothing much around within walking distance.

Positive points: Peaceful location, most beautiful lodge we‘ve been in Sumatra, amazing rooms, great staff, fantastic breakfast.

Positive points: Wow! What a great experience! It was really neat to be able to stay in a replica of a traditional Minangkabau house! And to walk along the paths through the rice paddies to get there. (travel light) The place was beautiful and the staff was great! Jaka was also an awesome tour guide, as he drove us to many beautiful places to see and experience the Minangkabu culture, architecture, and landscape of the Bukkittingi area! Terima Kasih Banyak Jaka!!

Positive points: situated near the rice paddies, gorgeous views of the canyons and sunsets mixed in with the daily salat makes the stay very scenic. staff spoke little English but very friendly and Jaka was great all around.
